Yes! It's officially time to delve into this new Binary and her story! Captain Marvel, Volume 8: The Trials, is already promising to be a fascinating addition to the Captain Marvel core. Does anybody else have a million theories about what is going on?
Ohhhh, a new Blade series? Better yet, a series about his family – specifically his daughter? Um, yes, please! Bloodline: Daughter of Blade #1 is exactly the sort of series I've been hoping for. I just hadn't realized it until now.
Gwen Stacy is back; from the looks of it, she's about to get into more trouble than ever in Ghost-Spider #10. This is a young woman who has seen it all, from the death of her best friend to a multidimensional war. Now? Now she's got a whole different problem to deal with.
Gwen Stacy’s multi-dimensional adventures continue in Ghost-Spider #8. Once again, we’re reminded of all the differences in Gwen’s universe, not least of which is the difference between the classic heroes we know and their alternates in other dimensions.
Gwen Stacy, aka Ghost-Spider, hails from Earth 65. In this universe, things and people tend to be vastly different from what we're used to seeing. Ghost-Spider #7 further reinforces that fact as we get to know two variants of fan-favorite heroes.
Gail Simone's famous series comes to a conclusion in The Variants #5. I'll admit, I'm sad to see it go. This series was phenomenal. Not only did it take risks (and have fun doing so), but it hit as hard as Jessica Jones. I don't think I need to explain how hard that is!
Ghost-Spider #6 is a different sort of issue when Gwen Stacy gives herself a chance to breathe for a few moments. Though that won’t stop her from stumbling across trouble – that seems to be a talent of hers.
Ahhhh! Yes! Scarlet Witch has always been one of my favorite comic series, and I've been missing it in recent years. So you can imagine my joy at the release of Scarlet Witch #1. Written by Steve Orlando, this issue has a ton of artists backing it up: Sara Pichelli, Elisabetta D'Amico, Matthew Wilson, and VC's Cory Petit. I want to thank each and every one of them for bringing my favorite character back to her own solo series.
Onward with the Revenge of the Brood in Captain Marvel #45. Though, is anyone else wondering what precisely they're getting revenge on? After all, they're supposedly in a moment of peace. Granted, we all knew that wasn't going to last.
Multiple universes can result in many strange dilemmas, such as having to face off against two copies of the same antagonist. That's probably not something Gwen Stacy, Ghost-Spider, was expecting to face. And yet that is what she comes up against in Ghost-Spider #5.
